SafeSolent Launches

Safe Solent is brought to you by you Students Union to replace the Night Bus Service that previously ran and aims to help facilitate late night study, so students can make use of the Library's late night opening hours.

The scheme was launched early November 2018 and led by Rich Westlake, your Vice President (Welfare & Community) to get off the ground. The scheme is initially running for a trial period until the 30th January, at which point it will be reviewed by the Board of Trustees as to its future, that's why your feedback is really important so we know how best to provide the service for you

"I'm really looking forward to seeing how SafeSolent takes off, allowing students to make the most of the library access that this scheme gives. It has already been really well received when we initially announced it and hopefully we will be able to better this service when it is up for review in January!" Rich Westlake, your Vice President (Welfare & Community) 2018/19 .
